ALA President Patricia “Patty” M. Wong writes: “The ALA–Allied Professional Association (ALA-APA), which is committed to improving the status of librarians and library workers, celebrates its 20th anniversary this year. Through your ALA membership, you are already part of ALA-APA. And as president of ALA, I’m also president of ALA-APA, so this work is very close to my heart. I’m proud that the leaders who came before me had the foresight to establish ALA-APA to offer resources for librarians, library staff, and library managers to attain their personal and professional goals and effect positive change in their institutions.”
